Why is my dog not eating and vomiting white foam?
A dog that won't eat and vomits white foam may be suffering from poisoning, ingestion of a foreign object, or an infectious disease. Ingesting toxic substances irritates the digestive tract; induce vomiting with soapy water and go to the vet. Swallowing items like chicken bones or plastic bags can block the gut and cause foam vomiting, requiring X-rays and removal. Distemper and parvovirus also cause these symptoms, so prompt veterinary care is best.

How do I make a dog vomit (induce vomiting)?
Use soapy water or 3% hydrogen peroxide, but peroxide's strong oxidation can damage the gut lining, so control the dose and rinse with water after to cut residue. Soapy water works better and is easier, but for toxin ingestion don't do it at home — go to a vet for 1% copper sulfate or apomorphine plus other meds to limit organ damage.
